The Red Dead Online B*tch & Moan Thread

[Direwrath]

Had something strange happen when we played last night, is anyone else having issues with the items in the wheel graying out for a prolong period of time for no reason? I lost quite a few photo ops because my camera was grayed out even when I was standing in the middle of an empty field. Than the rest of my items kept doing it, I couldn't use my resources to heal or change my clothes, etc. After a bit it would start working again, but it took a few minutes.

 

Also when I was going to do a poacher mission for Harriet the "psycho nut lady" we went from the load screen back to the server. The mission didn't start at first but after a few seconds went by I went to a black screen but left my posse behind. Thinking the missions would start I waited in the black screen while they harassed my poor, helpless, character because he was still in the game. Next thing I know they say that I spawned inside of a tree, but I still had the black loading screen. Well I leave the game and rejoin by just rejoining their game and we realized that we are in our own server.

 

Not complaining because we played that way all night. Had five legendary animals spawn and all of the random encounters and hideouts to keep us pretty busy. Other poacher missions worked well so I don't know what the heck happened, but hey it got us our own server so that was awesome.

I was in Strawberry, buying provisions and supplies from the store after selling some moonshine. I stopped by the doctor’s office to use jeanropke and set point markers on my map for carribean rum and creek plum.

 

In a session of 6 people, and a map of this gargantuan size, I had the displeasure of a player within my proximity making his obnoxious presence known. I heard some of the sound effects that happen when you bump into people and horses, so I exited the map, and it was the player running his horse into mine. I’ll tell you why in a second.

 

He was a typical juvenile sh*tter. More than a hundred levels below mine, dressed like a furry, and he had an arabian horse in one of those edgy skull masks. His fursuit was the black ram with crimson horns, too. He saw the cougar stowed on my horse, and he wanted it badly, and he successfully knocked my horse down the moment I exited the map, but he got knocked off as well and his horse ran into the creek below the bridge.

 

Well, I stowed the cougar quickly back on my horse, and one of the rabbits, but he stole the other rabbit and tried to make a run for it, though he slipped into the creek and lost the rabbit. I got on my horse, pulled my shotgun, and killed him when he was cowering on the river bank to whistle for his horse, all before I fast traveled back to my camp.

 

I don’t get why I’m punished for retaliating against an offender. Fursuiters are scum and shouldn’t be allowed to be in Defensive mode.

The system is bonkers. Someone can plough full speed into your Horse with theirs, send you flying, you get taken out of Defensive and then blasted with the Pump Action shotgun while you get up and they get no penalties while you get removed from Defensive and get Hostility points.

R* needs to realize they're not the only game in town.

They may have the only game of this type, but I have just finished downloading Wasteland 3, so any stupid glitches and crashes mean I'm done for the day for the foreseeable future.

 

They seem to think that they can cruise along based on their reputation without actually backing it up any more.

That sh*t won't last.

A session of 6 people? If (and I say if) you were there from a community invite, I suggest going back to that community and posting what happened and who did it.

 

It's been my experience that those who waste a 6 person lobby on doing things such as that get blacklisted and not invited back. It happens pretty rarely from what I've seen because most people that manage to get a 6 person lobby are respectful of one another and know better than to pull crap like that. If they are not respectful, they become persona non grata and they don't get invited back to 6 person lobbies.

Ah, no, it wasn't a community invite, the game's matchmaking currently isn't working as Rockstar intended (thankfully) and public sessions are having 2-6 players now.

Thanks for the heads up. I guess it's happening to different people because when I logged in this morning, I had a full 25 person lobby until I got into a solo (6 person) lobby.

 

edit: And I just went back  to my character after a couple of hours (I was AFK at the stable) and my lobby is full and I have messages from people trying to get in to solos. It may take awhile for the word to get around that lobbies are low population now, I guess.

So I just wondered did they change defense mode back again to a agressor advantage? I was near Blackwater I tried to sedate a badger, some guy came by and starting shooting at me. So he only hit me once but it hit my big horse and I went off defensive immediately? I was pissed he tried so hard to get me so I gave him some lead to make him dead with my Revolver, then bolted.

 

My friend and I had countless people attack us before but we didn't go off defense, so if this is the case now some one can just run into me with their horse like I had happen awhile back, while i'm knocked down and shoot me? Almost ruins defense mode, unless this was some fluke anyone know? Maybe some were abusing it before and they changed it back but it was something that made me less tense everywhere.

It’s being wonky again. I could be run over by someone in defensive, which happened thrice so far, and nothing would happen to them, but I get taken out of defensive if I ever dare to retaliate.

 

My guess is that the horses have something to do with it, judging by your experience and mine.

Another trick they do is throw dynamite to kill you, usually takes 2 if you're in defensive and not just standing there, but they get no aggression penalty for doing this, while if you retaliate you're the bad guy in the eyes of the game.

[DontGetClose1990]

Was in 2 players session with minimal problem. Tried to look for small birds for my trader daily,long story short i fast travelled to Emerald Station. Went for small birds and i got some then yellow question mark appeared,it was tatanka bison or something. 

 

Got off my horse then took a picture of it,after that i killed that bison. And the game even gave me notification that i killed it,turn my camera 360° to my horse and guess what happened?

 

The f*cking bootlegger mission appeared,my legendary bison carcass gone.

 

Note to self : never ever put my sight away from my objectives especially dead animal because rockstar can f*ck you up anytime. LITERALLY

Why are Bootleg missions so stupidly f*cking common yet you have to cut off your leg, sacrifice your firstborn, all while doing the hokey pokey just to get a legendary to spawn?

Why do they automatically trigger when you go near them and then become impossible to leave until you have killed everyone? If I accidentally ride into one I would rather find a new session than deal with the mission.

If you're looking for a specific LA and it won't spawn go near a spawn point during the right time period and in the favoured conditions and lobby hop.

 

I've been getting a few LA spawns over the last few days but couldn't get the Ota Fox to spawn, went to Ringneck Creek at 8pm, in clear conditions, it didn't spawn, so I lobby hopped and it spawned in almost immediately when I joined the new lobby.

[Non Funkable Token]

Aw, yes, bootlegger missions popping up more than anything in free roam. Why, f*ck, WHY? These can be launched from the shack, they're all the same as the ones that pop up randomly. Wouldn't be better to get rid of them, or at least reduce their spawn ratio to make the rest of the events and LAs spawn more often? 

[Shadowfennekin]

UGH!

I hopped on the train at Saint Denis to do the bird daily, saw the Sun gator so I jumped off, fired at it and that son of a bitch took off for the prison island! 

This shouldn't be allowed, that was total bullsh*t! I bet I'll never see it again -_-

The Sun Gator always try to roam close to the water by that small islands in Bluewater Marsh, if you don't get close enough to keep shooting him, that bastard will run off, had to follow him in the water while being followed by other Gators because he was sedated and run off to the middle of that F'kin River, if i didn't had used my full-bond Arabian, i doubt i would had managed to lasso that bastard in the middle of the river and had enough stamina to get back to the shore.

If it spawns near an area where LA's spawn, go there and lobby hop if the conditions are right for the LA to spawn. In fact, if any free roam thing spawns in an LA area instead of the LA, lobby hop. You have a better chance of the LA spawning in the new lobby.

[John McCabe]

For the first time since RDO launched, I've got nothing. Not a single complaint. But I'm sure I'll be back, no doubt Rockstar will "fix" the small lobbies and all will be broken once again...so until then...

[Caffeination]

Sessions are functioning properly, no infinite loading screens or softlocks, and abundant amount of animals... however, I still would like to point out that the inability to choose where you want to camp sucks.

 

I hate being put in the armpit of nowhere that has no decent animal spawns nearby. I would like to be near Beecher's Hope, or south of Blackwater, but not north of it.

[Caffeination]

What bandits? They’re all dead.

 

 

Can’t believe I’ll have to close the game and lose a yet another perfect cougar stowed on my horse, or else risk losing my goods for literally no reason.
